This is, without question, the best argument I have ever seen for electing Hillary Clinton in 2016.
It's quite bizarre to experience the power of emotion and art so... starkly. There is no content to the argument. It works entirely through emotion and one must fight off the influence that strikes so insidiously into the lower depths of the nervous system.

In your art, you know she's right.
A metrosexual cowboy has to help the woman break the glass ceiling because she's a loving mother and wife. Yeah, that's an argument.
I could not figure out if this was a joke or a lame attempt to connect with the "common folks."
Sounds suspiciously like "Old Shoe" from "Wag the Dog."
Gag.
This will work because "Stand with Wendy" worked so well in Texas?
It's almost exactly like the Walker song!!! Hahaha who is writing this stuff?
That's what they said about Bob Dole too.
@Rob LOL
It's a pick-up truck commercial. I kept expecting to hear the guy say "Ram Tough Trucks!".
By the way....the metrosexual cowboy is lip synching.
Hey, that guy who raped Juanita Broadrick is in there too!
That had me laughing uncontrollably about 2 minutes in.
If that's the best argument for Hillary, she's toast.
I was fighting a chuckle but not much more. Perhaps it will have some effect on its intended audience. It sure seems ripe for parody, if it weren't so silly to begin with.
Head-snapping segue from Stand with Governor Walker to Stand with Hillary!
This makes the news she only gets $500,000, or the special-university rate of $300,000 per speech, seem like Hillary is underpaid. All of her charm and charisma for under a cool million?
FiddelydiddelyStickeroonies!
We need to break the glass ceiling once and for all, each and every one of us.
Hillary 2016.
The woman repels me. She's too old, with too few ideas, and no clue how to present herself. I hope like hell this is the (well worn) path the Dems choose in 2016.
What's funny is if the people who made these things were not in earnest , they'd have some great raw material for satire. But it just dies on the vine of their jingoism instead
It would be a nice ad for some other candidate.
From the first 30 seconds, I thought it was an ad for Jim Webb.

I agree--it pretty much encapsulates every reason anyone would vote for Hillary. There's really no other reason to back her.
They should make this her campaigns official song!
" It works entirely through emotion and one must fight off the influence that strikes so insidiously into the lower depths of the nervous system."
Your trolling...Right?
I made it to a bout 1:45 in and couldn't take anymore.
If you are sincere...holy shit...I fear for the minds you mold.
I was on my way to buy a Ford truck when I realized what this was.
Are you kidding me?? That's AWFUL! I thought it was a parody.
Tim in Vermont: Love your comment.
And besides that, it's a godawful song. The lyrics are horrible, the music is weak, and yeah, the metrosexual cowboy? Ugh. They set it in the country and think they're gonna fool those dumb flyover types. What a bunch of Gruberites.
And may I just say, speaking of "Stand with Walker" - thank God Walker won again.
Well that's one country singer who decided to strangle his career in the crib.
He stopped loving the intern today #HillaryCountrySongs
You're kidding, right?
If not, I weep for your students.
Aimed at locking up the redneck/red state voters?
What group is next..
I feel like buying a pickup truck and a pack of Marlboros. But then I stopped at 0:32.
We all know Carl Rove made that video.
Why?
Cause so many people threw up when they saw it.
Shotgun Kathleen Willey #HillaryCountrySongs
Hee haw......
Will she don cowboys boots, chaps and join in a hoedown?
The whole video is amateurish.
" It works entirely through emotion and one must fight off the influence that strikes so insidiously into the lower depths of the nervous system."
I took this to mean projectile vomiting. If you drink a glass of red wine before it happens, then plan on new carpet, furniture, bric-a-brac, clothing, jewelry, electronics, artwork, and neighbors.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Stand with Clinton, huh.
Ask not which Americans Clinton will stand with. Ask which Americans will stand with Clinton.
This must be one of those senseless acts of political advertising that politicians are infamous for.
If 16 is all about rescuing the white white working class vote for the Dems I suppose more of this sort of crap is in the pipeline. It says a lot about who they think the white working class is. There's a whiff of desperation in it.
When are we going to rise above Goebbels crap?
You critics are missing the important thing here--cheesy pity commercials are all Hillary has. What else can she run on? Accomplishments? She doesn't have those. Feminist icon? Not with Rapey Raperson next to her. Scared of the Republican nominee? Won't work as long as there's no GOP front runner. So cheese is it.
LBJ in '64 used fear. Nixon in '68 used anger. Reagan in '84 used contentment. Hillary in '16 will use pity.
That wasn't an argument at all...it was a Hollywood movie trailer about a fictional character, patently phony. One would have to be a Hillary partisan (or as ignorant of the current political scene as a new-born baby) to not be instantly insulted by it.
But then...this is what our political campaigns and "arguments for" any candidate have devolved to. Our mainstream political "journalism" is no better.
No amount of music can make her human. She still stood by the coffins of the returning dead from Benghazi and told the relatives she'd get that youtube videographer!
You can't paper over despicable.
...and who's the metrosexual with the cowbow hat?
I made it to 1:07. It was baaad country music. When I hit the Back button it took 3 or 4 seconds to cancel and it got even more ridiculous in that short, tortuous span. I feel like I dodged a bullet when it finally, mercifully returned to this page.
Republicans should be careful in opposing Hillary. They may get Warren and she will be Obama on steroids and not as incompetent.
Restart button...Bengazhi...vast right wing conspiracy...enabler of adultery...huckster...Whitewater...FBI files in the living quaters of the White House..."congenital liar"...Hillary car...ect. ect.."Where's the outrage?" (quote, Bob Dole)...
Love it. We should have another feel good president. Didn't learn our lesson 6 years ago. I told my friend after Obama was reelected that there is 0% chance of beating Hillary if she gets nomination.
"patently phony"
True. And yet look at Althouse's reaction. That explains why this stuff doesn't go away. People who should know better are apparently nearly defenseless against schmaltz.
I clicked through to the end. It was paid for the Stand With Hillary PAC. They even have a hashtag #SWH2016.
I thought PACs were evil, and only used by ReThuglicans??
That's so fake. Eunuchs do NOT grow beards, even silly little five-o'clock shadow beards. And where are his pajamas?
Yeah, this is what was missing for 2008.
@pm137
We can say anything we want in front of Democrats and liberals. They can't hear us. We are invisible ghosts to them. The can't understand us. They think we talk in "word salad" because they don't get what we say.
As long as we're posting campaign ads...
Luckily all my ex girlfriends say I'm emotionally unavailable. So I should be able to critique this dispassionately.
Anyone else appreciate the "hindsight" reference early on? As in, "Dang, I voted for the wrong candidate in the 2008 primary, after all." Sheesh.
Yikes! The Un-Obama.
Obama: erudite, elitist, Eastern professor who speaks drivel with eloquence and elocution.
Hillary!: motorcycle-driving down home Mid-west girl next door; partnered with a young stud hunk tractor-backhoe-pickup driving guy.
Are those subtitles?!?! What do I need subtitles for? Can't you understand what I'm saying?
I get the country music and heartland backdrop. But the actors were overwhelmingly white. That had to be deliberate. And it was a little alarming to see. Racial politics are still going to be vicious in 2016.
"We need to break the glass ceiling once and for all, each and every one of us."
Or maybe the glass table.
But the actors were overwhelmingly white. That had to be deliberate.
Carville would have said "it is the white working class, stupid!"

Are you concern trolling? As if the reason the President and the Democrats have become unpopular is that they have not been progressive enough. Fauxcahontas couldn't get elected outside the bluest of blue states.
"...and through it all... she's a luv'in wife"
Oh! Like Surah Palin?

Country singers Ty Herndon and Billy Gilman both came out as gay yesterday
Anything is possible in the 21st century
Who made this--Leni Riefenstahl?
The video was plausible as a SNL skit. And, just like a SNL skit, it went on too long.
It needs more cats.
I winced a bit, when he hopped onto the back seat of the motorcycle, to let the lady drive. This imagery, while an apt metaphor for what the advertiser is advocating, will not, in fact, help sell their product to men.
The pubes visceral reaction to her is exactly the sames as the tards towards Mama Grizzly. Roar!
I think this aimed at Women, not men.
Anyway, I look forward to having Bill, Monica, and Hillary back in the Oval Office. Maybe, Denise Rich can drop by and sing a few songs about the old days.
The big thing is these commenters as well as other people have who are focused on politics so closely is they don't have much else going on-no fab jobs, no sex anymore, bored, fat wife who won't blow them, etc.

Speak for yourself, fraud.
"without question, the best argument I have ever seen"
People, we're being invited to think deeply about this subtle phrasing. "without question," "best," "ever," "seen": plenty of outs.
Even after being able to watch only 30 seconds, I almost agree.
If the prospect of Hillary running for President causes people to make parody PACs, then she doesn't have a chance.
"I winced a bit, when he hopped onto the back seat of the motorcycle, to let the lady drive."
Good point. Vote for Hillary, climb on, and ride her bitch seat, Amurrca.
Yeah, I felt that emotion too. After five seconds and the subliminal picture of Hillary, I'd had enough of that crap. I hope you were being sarcastic.
Are you concern trolling?
No, if you are a regular here, you would know where I am coming from. Warren will get swept up with the same coalition that elected Obama (and remember Democrats vote earlt and vote often) but this time it will be for a woman(!)..your first woman president.
As I have spoken here before --
The next POTUS is Hillary!
There is nothing anyone can do. Trust me: I have been in board rooms of newspapers, fortune 500 companies, Wall Street fund managers, etc.
All want: Hillary for 2016!
If you so as to even show some hesitation, you will be immediately cast out.
You will be told: Hillary is right. Hillary is the best. It is her time. The White House belongs to her.
So, GOP: Say goodbye to all that:
And, start thinking of: POTUS Hillary!
I got as far as the cringe inducing cattle. Remember Hillary's turning a $1k investment in cattle futures into $100k over a few months back in in the late 70s when that was real money? Surely this is a joke. It focuses on ideas we absolutely do not associate with Hillary - patriotism, happy families, hard workers. Gives me the creeps.
Next time I'm stupid enough to run out of gas on a back road...because I'm a stupid white guy that never looks at his gas gauge...and some hot chick pulls over on her motorcycle...the hero...women saving men from men things...
...yea, I guess then I'd too would be ready for Hillary.
Until then I'd just walk to the gas station, as a lesson to never run out of gas ever again.
Sorry. I watched it with the sound off.
Hillary wouldn't be caught dead near the people shown in this video, at least as far as I could stand it.
That is a Sarah Palin or Ted Cruz commercial.
At 1:51... uh, Hillary, my eyes are up here.
"They may get Warren and she will be Obama on steroids and not as incompetent."
Not a worry in a ton of Warren. She is Obama with white skin.
I missed the back of the motorcycle thing Whoa !
If you want another reason to not elect Hillary here's one.
My generation are the beautiful ones," he sighs, referring to a 1960s experiment on mice that supposedly predicted a grim future for the human race.
After overpopulation ran out of control, the female mice in John Calhoun's "mouse universe" experiment stopped breeding, and the male mice withdrew from the company of others entirely, eating, sleeping, feeding and grooming themselves but doing little else. They had shiny coats, but empty lives.
"The parallels are astounding," says Rupert.
Our future under Hillary.
"This is, without question, the best argument I have ever seen for electing Hillary Clinton in 2016."
Then she's getting creamed.
IS ANN KIDDING? It was the most stupid video I have ever watched in my life.
There is no rational argument for electing Hillary. What have we learned from the past 6 years? Obviously nothing!
"Remember Hillary's turning a $1k investment in cattle futures into $100k"
If Hillary! Is the candidate, her opponent should have a short, look-into-the-camera ad explaining how corrupt (a.k.a. Illegal) that deal was.
I got 90 seconds into it without throwing up.
Where's my medal?
Huh????
Well, our moderator is joshing. But the sad thing is that this is the type of clip that will draw in a lot of LI voters.
How Can Bill Get Over Her when She's Still Under Him. #HillaryCountrySongs
I thought I saw the Rose Law Firm bilking, er, billing records at 1:51.

By "lower depths of the nervous system" you're talking irritable bowel syndrome here, right?
You must be joking! This has to be a parody. Or else it is some coastal elitist's idea of what will appeal to poor, dumb white folks in fly-over country.
The Better I've Gotten to Know Hillary the More Love my Horse. #HillaryCountrySongs
It's interesting in the context that Hillary 2016 understands it must claw back the white blue collar vote to have a chance when the black vote drops from 95% to 85%.
You Broke My Heart so I Leaked Your Tax Records. #HillaryCountrySongs
Hillary faux-smiling in front of the military she detests… what emotion is it that one would expect bubbling forth?

Without reading the comments...Hillary is insufficiently distanced from the Obama Administration.
We will not reelect Obama policies for a third term.
It's that simple.
What vanishing fraction of 1% of the American public is in the converging Zenn-diagram figures of (1) responds to this country-music country-imaged Norman-Rockwellized fiction of Billary and (2) doesn't already understand how incredibly stupid you have to be to be suckered by these people again?
More cowbell!!

If I could get in touch with my inner sap, I might fall for this.

Is everyone going nuts? It's getting hard to tell the B.S. from the B.S.
If Republicans can pander to rednecks why not Democrats?
What, they couldn't work in a balcony scene with Soviet missiles on parade in the background?
Well, it's not like she can do a 3am phone call ad this time.
That's easy to resist! There was nothing in the least bit interesting or persuasive about that nonsense!!
I smell the scent of Bill Clinton doing his Arkansas good old boy seduction using his Hillary as a head
light ornament that is a brave white woman as Bill the Hot Springs erotic lover.
But how can Hillary pull that image off? She is a Lehigh Valley Puritan turned atheist determined to rule society for our good. That can NEVER appeal to southern voters. Bill cannot pull it off.
The white working class has been the class in play in American politics since the late 1960s. One election they go with the Democrats, the next they go with Republicans. Neither party has the foggiest idea what to do to help them and if we were all honest we'd see that no one has the foggiest idea - not the left base of the Democrats nor the right base of the Republicans nor any combo in between. this substitutes pure condescension unmediated by any actual idea about what to do at all. But I am skeptical it will work. I'd rather watch Jack Nicholson coming home from the oil fields to his hillbilly wife with Tammy Wynette singing "Stand by Your Man" in the opening of Five Easy Pieces. And I suspect most good old boys and a lot of others would also.

Good comments, good comments...
A desperate appeal to folks who can only dream of a "new car smell"?
"If Republicans can pander to rednecks why not Democrats?"
So the Democrats are adding rednecks to their stable of panderees, to go with women and blacks?
Looking at the position of her right arm in the picture I'd say she looks like she is a male peeing in the standing position. The "stand with Hillary" message then makes sense.
Hillary is the candidate of traditional values. Unless you have some kind of retrograde belief in a higher power. "One of my big problems right now is that too many people believe they have a direct line to the Divine..."

That's a brilliant incite and made me look again.
She looks like she's a pretend man pissing on the USMC color guard -- all the while smiling. She's going to have to work twice as hard to erase that image.
Where and when are they planning on running this? On which show or website would they consider this effective?
This Morning in America-esoue drivel is so bad it's stunning.
Just on the most basic level, that this dreck pretends to be country music viscerally offends me. But frankly that really has nothing to do with Hillary.
Love the "loving wife" appellation. They can't ignore her domestic life so they have to at least touch on it. What a load. Mr. and Mrs. haven't slept in the same room in how many years? That's their business, but don't to call her a "Loving wife". That's just a bold lie.
I'd like to see and hear a Webb Pierce flavored video of "There Stands the Ass" for the winner of Ms. Pants Suit 1994.
If only her handlers had chosen a photo with her hand on heart -- like she did that time for the pledge when Obama cupped his nuts instead.
I kept thinking of Brad Pitt in the movie "Thelma and Louise"
For a moment I forgot whether Hillary Clinton or Tracy Flick was preparing to run for President. The arguments for either one would be the same.
If Republicans can pander to rednecks why not Democrats?
As you frequently remind us, the Democrats are too busy pandering to imbeciles.
Conned by a man or woman. What's the difference, really. Perhaps Clinton is vying for the lesser evil consolation vote. I imagine that will be the leading position in upcoming elections.
"As you frequently remind us, the Democrats are too busy pandering to imbeciles"
Oh you're on fire tonight. Preach!
Meanwhile, Elizabeth Warren is courting the AFL-CIO:
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) will be taking her populist economic message to the AFL-CIO in January, when she will be the labor union's keynote speaker at an event devoted to wages.
The union on Thursday announced Warren would speak, calling her a "true champion of working people."

Well if you've got a lizard brain, you'll be moved by this. But then, you'll also be a lizard.
OTOH if you've go a functioning adult human brain, you'll be appalled by Shrillary's latest atatement along the lines of "the 21st century way is to empathize with our enemies".
Now play "Stained by your man".
Put some ice on that.
"Stand With Hillary" reminds me of the county-and-western music in the 1980s. In those days, the saloons in the area where I lived were packed every Friday and Saturday night. Then one Friday night the crowds disappeared, never to return. The same thing will happen to Hillary's campaign before the next U.S. presidential election. She'll go from singing "On the Road Again" to singing something like Don Gibson's late 1950s song "Oh Lonesome Me." At that point, one of us should buy cowgirl Hillary a beer.

Indeed it did for me-it was such a powerful influence on the lower depths of my nervous system that I had to rush to the toilet in a mad-dash Imodium moment.
From Betsy's Page:
She's not even an especially gifted politician. Aside from the spectacular incompetence of her 2008 campaign, she is as gaffe-prone as Dan Quayle and as awkward as Bob Dole.
It doesn't speak well of the health of the Democratic Party that she and its voters seem to think she does have that claim. Rather, it's a mark of lifelessness, of a hardening of the party's arteries.
She's not even an especially gifted politician. Aside from the spectacular incompetence of her 2008 campaign, she is as gaffe-prone as Dan Quayle and as awkward as Bob Dole.
If she were running on competence and fresh ideas I'd listen. But so far, all I hear is "it's her turn," and an appeal to assuage guilt over a "glass ceiling." Yawn. Neither of these is inspiring.
Kinda reminded me of the opening sequence of "Friday Night Lights." Tyra for president! Or even Lyla. If we must have a woman president, at least we should have a hot one.
Ooh, Ooh, can I play?

People who should know better are apparently nearly defenseless against schmaltz.
Not people...women.
This is directed at all the hysterical women who believed in the War on Women and voted for Obama. Althouse is precisely the targeted audience.
they done left out the apple pie ! i ain't about to be votin' fer nobody 'less i gets me some damn pie !!
Gahrie has it right - this is targeted to the emotional feminist wing of her party. And yes, she really thinks they are stupid enough to swallow this. Considering her encounters with Dem females like Lewinsky, Jones, and Wiles. .. she may be right.
No more diversity hires for awhile please. After 8 years of incompetence blamed on "racism!", the country cant survive another 4 of every mistake being shielded by cries of "sexism".
Besides, after the disasterous administration of our first black president, we owe it to America to choose a first female president that is competent. Hillary is only good for spin and coverups.
This ad is laughable. A metrosexual fake cowboy singing about a fat old woman??? This is like "stand with Wendy" . Her base is not country music fans and this will not win over country music fans. Ann, if you think this is "emotional" .... Jeez.
It didn't say nothing about moma, trains, prison, etc. "I was drunk the day my man got out of prison". That might be more appropriate for her.
I made it to 0:43. Did I win?
Hillary's real calling is viagra ads.
I was drunk the day my man got out of prison.
It is "I was drunk the day my MOM got out of prison".
:o)
They Have Got To Be Kidding.
This isn't directed as flyover whites as much as it's directed at the liberal coastal base, who flatter themselves as being oh so selfless and supportive of the working class ... and yet condescendingly ask of the plebes why they don't "vote their interests." See! Hillary is just like them! She can finally do it for us, she can finally reach these godforsaken people! Let's write her a check!
At 0:33, did that guy behind the Clintons ask that his face be scrambled? It's strangely noticable. To me, at least. I couldn't stop looking at his featureless face.
You know how you help the white working class? You allow and encourage fracking, so they can get a decent job with decent benefits turning a wrench, for example.
Could have spent the stimulus modernizing our electrical grid, for another.
Build the pipeline.
Build things. I grew up in and live among the white working class. A proud member just showed me how to clean the carb on my snowmobile, and you know what, he was right, it feels good when you keep stuff running good (sic on myself) with your own hands.
Final comment: the guy jumped on the lady's motorcycle with no helmet on. How irresponsible. How reckless. Accepting her help might well lead to a bloody and painful end for him. She'll be okay though, because she's wearing a helmet.
The most honest part of the video.
@garage
The reason the Dems can't pander to "rednecks," as you call them hatefully, is that you lefties who have taken over the Democrat party have been hating on them for years. Bitter clingers, yada yada yada.
But I guess you think they are all dirt stupid, so fooling them will be easy.

Which is ironic given that Obama now says our infrastructure in this country is terrible.
He spent a billion and did little for infrastructure...and conservatives might have supported updating our old and rickety elctrical grid.
I watched without sound.
I laughed when the words on the screen said "We're needing a leader who's tough and ready" -- or some such -- and the visual was -- cows grazing?
Is the truck that ran out of gas a metaphor for Bill? And Hillary rides up on her cycle and saves him?
"Could have spent the stimulus modernizing our electrical grid, for another."
The electrical grid is vulnerable to an EMP attack. Many many millions would die from a successful attack. We could have spent the stimulus on spare components to be placed on site of critical installations, greatly reducing the time to get the system back up. But noooooooo. We pissed it all away.

They must have "photoshopped" Hillary into the evening review at the Iwo Jima Memorial. I am sure she never went there willingly.
Using the USMC as a prop is the only way she would know how to use it.
Break the glass ceiling! Some of us learned in high school that males will use any opportunity to look up a skirt. The coin technique has been available since at least 1984 (or mayhaps earlier as enshrined in the movie "Splash"). And don't forget upskirt images from cellphones.
Ms. Rodham Clinton evidently prefers the use of "pants" as a noun, and since fashion trumps substance, shut up you nasty boys: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmTd1fky3AQ.
Does Ms. Warren sew her own pants?
"A vote for Hillary is a vote for your daughter, a vote for your wife ... a vote for all the great ladies in your life. And you'll be gettin' a lot more lovin' in the bedroom from your wife. So grab your sledge hammers and suit up, boys. We've gotta' fight for our women. It's boot scootin' time."
Dang. I see now why Ann finds this so compelling. A man against Hillary is a misogynist who will never get any again.
"This is, without question, the best argument I have ever seen for electing Hillary Clinton in 2016."
So, faint praise, then?
@Fritz: "We need to break the glass ceiling once and for all, each and every one of us."
Or maybe the glass table.
Heh. You are evil! ;)
God, that was funny. I can't wait for the Mitt Romney gangsta rap. And maybe the Indigo Girls will do a spot for Rick Santorum.
But you have to give it to her, Hillary is a supportive wife. There is no one in the world who would work harder to besmirch and intimidate the women her husband sexually assaulted.
Althouse, can you go more into depth on why you found it so moving? Was it the motorcycle rescue scene, or where exactly did you start tearing up?
It's like an SNL parody when SNL parodies were funny.
Does Ms. Warren sew her own pants?
Yes, and I understand she uses every part of the buffalo.
Well Ann you see it as the best argument for electing Hillary--reaches down into the nervous system etc. .
I see it as reaching down and affecting both ends of my alimentary canal with violent wretching on at least one end of said canal.
I understand that the same clown who wrote this piece did a Viva Obama with mariachi music in 2008.
The song was written by Democratic political operative, and media producer Miguel Orozco, who wrote a series of Latin-flavored songs celebrating Barack Obama in the 2008 election.
Given that fact, and given that the return-to-normalcy theme must, by definition, stand in contrast to the current Presidency, this is a truly surreal piece of work.
You came back in time / learning, hindsight's always right
Vote for Hillary and African Americans will disappear. Wait. There is one African American in the video. He's a lonely guy the white people invited to Thanksgiving.
And now, it's 2016 / And this time, I'm thinkin', guys
This time, white guys who happen to be Democrats, put your thinkin' caps on. Vote in the primaries for the white lady.
p.s. Next, I expect the Hillary campaign to license the Who's Won't be Fooled Again to reclaim the "young persons" vote.
p.p.s. Rhyme is hard. What rhymes with Hillary? Distillery. Pillory. Field artillery. Aux armes, citoyens!
Althouse will vote Hillary! and take at least two years, just past the 2018 election, to admit who wrong she was to do so.
Because history repeats itself, first as tragedy then as farce.
A vote for Hillary is a vote for all the real misbehavior of the first Clinton presidency, from trumped up charges against the Travel Office personnel to allow a crony to take the job, to smearing half the population with a lie so you don't have to accept your own wrongdoing, but with farcical elements of Russian, Chinese, Iranian and Islamist expansionism to make it really, really fun!
To clarify further:
It is impossible to see this video as anything other than an exorcism of Barack Obama. He's the guy that inexplicably beat Hillary Clinton the last time she ran (because folks weren't "thinkin'") and he's the unspecified person that represents the foil for her declared virtues of experience and toughness (and femaleness).
And yet Mr. Obama and his presidency are utterly absent from the narrative of the video. Not even Hillary Clinton's role as Secretary of State makes the cut. We made a mistake, the video says. Vote for Hillary and let it be purged from history. It will be as if it never happened.

Then it would have been good.
Henry--the old maxim that "If you have to declare your virtues, you don't have any virtues" rings true in Hillary's case.
As for the bearded guitar playing dude--well some folks will do anything for money.
Oh! Ick!
No redneck worth his/her grits would be fooled by that ad.
Oh my. I laughed out loud. Looks like something The Onion made up. And I'm a centre left Canuck who tried to give Hillary money in 2008. I got a nice note back calling me a foreign national. Lol.
I would like to see Hillary invited to Netroots and try to demonstrate her progressive cred.
If she throws out the first pitch at a Mets' game, remember, it will be impermissible to say that she throws like a girl.
Ug..
There's time to make this err..piece more potent.
It should start out with her "I'm baaack!"
Then, with the country/southern theme cooking and the ongoing concern over her lack of "new car smell", the perfect addition would be a section with her saying in that fine accent:
"I aint no wayze Tyyyrrred"
The end needs to refer to "What difference does it make?!!"
